You're a liar. All he said was that he looked pretty good. Which he did. If you ever get to wondering why folks here consider you to be trollish, making up false narratives about what other people say and then insulting them for it is something you might want to reconsider. If you don't wonder why folks think that, then you probably are a troll.

What?! I will find that son of a butcher and make him pay.

Could you provide some examples of the people who are salivating over his first game?

If you want to hang out in the game thread and discuss it with other who are watching the game, great. If you just want to B word about the Bills, there is no need to annoy others and interfere with ther discussion of the game that this thread is dedicated to. There are dozens of other places you can do that. Please use them.

How can you forget when Matt Milano finished off Tua back in 2023?

I'd guess it was because the Bills ended up running zones all night long.

I assumed Diggs made a mistake in the depth of his route. But I'm just a guesser.

I thought it was mostly a lane issue.

Whaddya got? Here's my guess: Twofold problem right now 1) He hasn't started trusting his OLine yet after last year's debacle and it's affecting is ability to process and see the field and 2) He loves to challenge himself to make amazing plays, because it's fun It doesn't make him stupid, selfish or scared because he's none of those things, but it does make him a turnover prone QB and he knows that has to change. So he decides to make the change. Eventually I think he will do so successfully but these next few weeks are going to be hard. Every time he drops back he's going to have his own voice in his head telling him "No, don't bail yet", "No, don't try that throw", "No, don't take that guy on for an extra yard" and that is going to be very distracting and make it very hard for him to find the Zone. During this time he'll likely do a better job of protecting the ball, but it's probably going to come at the price of making him a less efficient QB. If he sticks with it and stays patient, eventually that voice will go away, he'll get out of his own head and the decision-making process will become more organic and less forced. At that point he'll start being able to get back in the Zone and then we'll see him spreading the ball around and cutting people up the way we know he can. When this happens, woe to anybody who thinks they can still run man schemes against the Bills offense. Stay focused and patient young buck, you'll find that place again....

We joke about arm arrogance, but that's sort of what it comes down to.

Multiple professionals disagree with that assessment and believe Kincaid for the first down is the right option. In real time, I thought Diggs' drag was the right read. Both were better options than trying to squeeze that thing into that coverage

You guys might be watching different plays. They didn't get caught in any stunts up front and Hyde is 10yrds off the ball

Step 1: Have Frank Sinatra playing up in the booth at all times so that when Dorsey's calling down plays, Josh can hear Pennies from Heaven in the background.

Sorry but that is an absolutely gawdawful comparison, imo.

In the second half he went from maniac to bumbling buffoon. My initial take was that he looked like he had suddenly been possessed by JP Losman. It was really, really bad. Props to your wife's prescience...

If you take the time to read the thread instead of making smarmy comments, you might learn more about it.

I liked when they ran him to the edges; it definitely created issues for the Jets front. I liked it less when he opted to take it outside instead of working the play design. I understand he's not built for contact, but I prefer my backs to do a bit less cutting the rug and a bit more running to the goalline.

I would guess that it's because you don't watch any other team so consistently? I'd guess that just about every defense gives up one really long run every year.

One of their OTs tried to cut Groot on the first series. It did slow him down for about .7 seconds, which was probably about as good as they did against him while Rodgers was in.

It was Benford from the other Corner position

You left out Knox's little brother, Dawkin's lady, Morse's concussion, and a slew of injuries.

I can actually see his thumb bend backwards when it hits the ball. Doesn't really matter, though. Good coverage, incredible concentration and reflexes from Wilson on a rather fortunate bounce.

I think the whole Front 7 should have been a gap to their left
